Pumpkins! Pumpkins?


We normally attempt to carve pumpkins on my birthday, however this year because my birthday landed on a Wednesday we decided to carve pumpkins later.  (probably a good thing we opted to do it later because I was blessed to be at the hospital with my friend Megan who gave birth to her daughter Aija (Iyah) Marie.)  The boys took their pumpkins to the Phelps house this year and carved them with the youth group and we carved as a family the 3 little boys pumpkins.  Katie did Orion's' this year because he really was not in to the pumpkin thing. Joe helped Justus and Luke helped Matthias.  So it all worked out for them all. 

Matthias decided to try to eat the innards and all went well until he got the stringy part all the way in his mouth and then he started the gagging reflex.  All you who have been around Matthias when he decides that he does not like something know what can come next if you don't hurry and get what ever is in his mouth out. 

Later David attempted to get a picture of the 3 little boys and their pumpkins.  Lets just say that patience is something we both worked on during this ordeal.

Boy lady, you were up late posting! Just kidding!
I love your pictures. They look great. Looks like you're putting your new camera to good use.
And I think it's funny how Luke is basically hiding in the picture of the little boys. Almost like he wasn't "allowed" to be seen in it. Ha, ha.
